If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Kingsash questions
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to Kingsash?
Wendover station, about 2 miles north-west of the centre.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Can you carve thinly?
Plates with thin slices are easy to arrange.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Can residents with swallowing difficulties have the hog roast?
We don’t prepare texture-modified meals; your team prepares those portions.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Halal isn’t offered
Give us a contact, such as the activities lead.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
